The Fuji X-A1 resides at the low end of the Fuji X-Series lineup of mirrorless cameras. The camera is so small and light. It feels much like a point and shoot camera in your hand when equipped with the Fuji XF 27mm f/2.8 pancake lens (40.5mm equivalent on a full frame camera). [Read more…]

The new Fuji X-A1 entry-level mirrorless camera is now in stock and shipping from B&H. Recall that the X-A1 features a 16.3MP standard Bayer sensor instead of the X-Trans sensor found in other X-Series models. It’s also substantially cheaper. Check it out here at B&H Photo.

The Fuji X-A1 should be along within the next week or so at the rate of leaks we’re at now. The latest leak shows off some official images of the upcoming X-A1, as well as the full press release. [Read more…]

Fuji has been on a roll with its mirrorless camera system since unveiling the X-Pro1. Fuji later followed with the X-E1 last summer and the base model X-M1 earlier this summer.

Now, Fuji looks set to release a model below the X-M1 – the very compact X-A1.

The Korean Radio Research Agency (apparently, a legit government entity) has a registration for the Fujifilm X-A1 dated July 25, 2013. There are no specs revealed in the registration; however, the model name confirms prior rumors. In addition to the name, earlier rumors suggested that the X-A1 would not sport an APS-C sensor, opting instead for a smaller sensor and a more compact body.
